Parker SC650-8 Male Button Shock Absorber 1-12 Thread

Product Description

The PARKER SC650-8 is a male button shock absorber designed to decelerate moving loads and reduce impact energy in pneumatic and mechanical motion control applications. It features a 0.25-inch stainless steel rod diameter, a 0.91-inch stroke length, and a 1-12 thread size, with an outside diameter of 0.87 inches and an overall length of 5.62 inches. The body is steel with a black oxide finish. This type of component is typically installed by mechanical technicians and automation engineers working on linear actuator systems, pneumatic cylinders, and material handling equipment.

The SC650-8 is suited for light-duty industrial and automation applications where controlled deceleration of small moving assemblies is required. Its male button configuration allows direct mounting into threaded receiver points on actuator end caps, fixtures, and machine frames. Operating temperature range runs from 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F, making it appropriate for standard indoor industrial environments. The compact form factor fits into tight machine envelopes where space is limited.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for direct threaded installation
• 0.25-inch stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance at the contact surface
• 0.91-inch stroke length for controlled deceleration over a short travel range
• 1-12 thread size for secure, precise mounting
• Black oxide finish on steel body for surface protection
• Rated operating range of 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade shock absorber for light-duty pneumatic and mechanical linear motion systems using 1-12 threaded mounting points.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified mechanical or automation technician. De-energize all pneumatic and electrical circuits before servicing any motion control component. Thread engagement should be verified against the receiver fitting to ensure full, clean thread contact before operating under load. Refer to applicable machine safety standards and manufacturer torque guidance for the receiving assembly when finalizing the mount.
